LichtBlick review

LichtBlick's renewable power sits at 100%, and the basis behind it is certificates. That means the renewable share is delivered through certificates rather than through a stated mix of its own generation. If you want to know what sits behind a green tariff, the renewable basis is the line to read on any supplier, not only this one.

A smart meter is required, so the dynamic tariff only runs where the meter is already in place or can be installed. Households that cannot get one fitted should treat the rest of the range as the practical choice, and the fixed, variable and dynamic list shows the other shapes on offer. The metering condition is the first thing to check before comparing dynamic pricing.

LichtBlick reports 2,000,000 customers. That is a base built up over a long trading life, which matters more for continuity of service than for the rate on your bill. A large base usually means the operational side of switching, billing and metering is well drilled, though it says nothing in itself about pricing. Judge it on the tariff terms.

The range covers fixed, variable and dynamic, so a household can hold a fixed price, move to variable, or switch to dynamic pricing with a smart meter. Electric vehicle and green options sit alongside them. For comparison, Endesa lists fixed, time of use and ev and Powerpeers lists dynamic, fixed and variable, both narrower than this set.

Yes. The fuels covered are electricity and gas, so a household can take electricity and gas from the same supplier and keep one relationship rather than two. That suits anyone who wants a single point of contact across both meters. The support routes listed as email, phone and help centre then handle queries on either fuel.

Fixed terms run 12 and 24 months, which gives a short commitment and a longer one to choose between. A household expecting to move soon has the shorter end available, while a longer commitment may suit a stable home. Read the term against the current rate before signing, since the price you hold is tied to the length you pick.

Support runs on email, phone and help centre. That means a phone line and an email route for anything urgent, plus a help centre for questions you can look up yourself. There is no live chat in that list, so if you prefer typing in real time, plan on email or the phone rather than expecting an instant reply window.

The contracting company is LichtBlick SE, registered in Germany and trading since 1998. Being a long-established operator matters for continuity, since you are committing a household supply rather than a trial. It does not by itself secure a competitive rate, so the tariff terms and the metering condition for dynamic pricing remain the two things to weigh.

Yes. Powerpeers lists dynamic, fixed and variable and Endesa lists fixed, time of use and ev, so a green option is not unique to LichtBlick. Electricity Ratings also includes green among fixed, ev and time of use. Where LichtBlick differs is the pairing of green with dynamic and electric vehicle tariffs in the same range.
